      in the list under "S- Show paired and connected devices"

      Yes, I know the menu, I didn't undestand your question:

      edit: it is in the list of devices that I can remove now?
      

      since you said you already removed the devices present.

      that doesn't look helpful?

      It doesn't show xpadneo being loaded. Are you sure you have installed it ? If you run

      lsmod | grep xpadneo
      

      what's the output ?

        no output, but the driver manager shows installed from source

          OK, so it's installed but not loaded. You can load it with sudo modprobe hid-xpadneo.

          Can you run

          sudo dmesg -c
          

          then pair the controller (through whatever method). Run dmesg again and post the output.

            did that

            Can you run

            sudo dmesg -c
            

            did that as well

            then pair the controller (through whatever method). Run dmesg again and post the output.

            I assume dmesg -c ?

            pi@retropie:~/RetroPie-Setup $ sudo dmesg -c
            [ 2902.117964] Bluetooth: hci0: security requested but not available
            [ 2903.190508] Bluetooth: hci0: security requested but not available
            [ 2922.078896] Bluetooth: hci0: security requested but not available

            [ 2961.045668] Bluetooth: hci0: security requested but not available
            

            I didn't reboot in between

            edit:

            pi@retropie:~/RetroPie-Setup $ lsmod | grep xpadneo
            hid_xpadneo            24576  0

              You didn't mention which RetroPie version/image you are using. At the beginning you mentioned some configuration for BT which may actually be detrimental to your setup right now. xpadneo takes care of any issues with Bluetooth, so there shouldn't be any configuration needed.

                yeah, I fear that I might have "overconfigured now" ... and obviously I didn'T backup ... :-D

                the official image from https://retropie.org.uk/download/ for raspberry pi 3, sorry could've been more specific

                Maybe I should just reflash and start from scratch with xpadneo ... :-D
                as to forum-etiquette: should I, if problems arise after a fresh start rather start a new thread or continue here? depends on forum-culture and I am not a part of that, yet :-D

                    @mitu And I am back:
                    fresh install, same RPi 3-Image
                    only thing I changed is locale and installed xpadneo (and the standard-password )

                    16f9a0b6-f0d2-40d8-bda2-6574ea981c83-image.png

                    after connecting via retropie-setup.sh
                    (DisplayYesNo), the controller vibrated quickly as if connected butis still blinking until it turns off automatically - at the moment a reboot is on it's way which now ended with no different results.

                    edit: after the reboot: lsmod »| grep xpadneo has no output, again.

                    edit2: this is happening in bluetotohctl:

                      No idea then - if xpadneo cannot work with it, then try maybe the dongle and see if it appears as a regular (i.e. wired) controller.

                        @mitu thanks for the help :-)
                        I cannot be the only one with that problem, but so far I haven't found anyone discussing these issues. might be my stupidity ... :-D
                        ...
                        Dongle didn't work before, will try again now ...
                        I'd like to not buy another controller :-D
                        maybe if I install raspbian first and then add the stuff manually ...
                        I think I should focus on getting the controller to work and then get retropie running, since the controller is a little bit more annoying :-D
                        I'll reflash libreeleec some time later this week and check whether it works there, then raspbian and just add what I need to that, once the controller is working!

                        If I remember, I will update the post here, to at least help people in the future :-D
